The attack happened on West Street and Chambers Street in Manhattan at around 3 p.m. At least six people were wounded and at least two more were fatally shot. Before the shooting, the gunman either crashed or intentionally rammed his car into nearby pedestrians.

“What happened was there was a car crash… he came out of one of the cars. He had two guns. He was running around Chambers and somebody started to chase him,” a 14-year-old student at the nearby Stuyvesant High School told the New York Post. “I heard four to six gunshots – everybody starts running.”
